Leadership

Overview of School Leadership Structure

There are three leadership teams that together with the administrative team form the core of the leadership and organization of FHM. Each leadership team includes representation from both the community and school administration. The administrative team works in concert with the three leadership teams to further the mission of FHM in delivering a comprehensive program grounded in Montessori educational excellence. The following table provides a quick overview of each of the leadership team responsibilities.

Separate non-profit entity established to provide fund-raising for the school

All fund-raising efforts support FHM’s fundamental objectives of Individualized Instruction, Engaging Curriculum, and Strong Community

Also provides the community-building activities for the school

Getting Involved with a Leadership Team

Each year, three of our Leadership Teams solicit new members for specific terms of service.  Our website and Fox Flash will post information about how you can get involved and fulfill your volunteer commitment through service on the Board of Directors, School Accountability Committee and CSN.
